PEANUT BUTTER POUND CAKE RECIPE - (4.5/5)



Peanut Butter Pound Cake Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by á-2700

Number Of Ingredients 16

PEANUT BUTTER FROSTING:
1 cup butter, softened
2 cups sugar
1 cup light brown sugar, lightly packed
1/2 cup peanut butter, creamy or crunchy
5 eggs, room temperature
1 tablespoon vanilla
3 cups flour, all purpose
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup milk, whole or low fat
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup peanut butter, creamy
2 cups powdered sugar
Milk (amount varies based on consistency desired)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325°F. Prepare a large tube or bundt pan by greasing and flouring it. Set pan aside. Update: A couple people have commented that their cake overflowed while baking. This recipe makes a large cake and I used a large tube pan. Only fill your bundt/tube pan up about 3/4 full. Don't let the extra batter go to waste though, make some muffins or a small loaf. In a large bowl, mix flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda. Set aside. On medium speed, cream together butter and sugar until fluffy. Add the brown sugar and peanut butter and continue mixing. Add the eggs, one at a time. Wait until one egg is fully mixed in before adding the next one. Add vanilla. Add the dry ingredients and the milk to the creamed mixture. Alternate between the flour mixture and the milk, using about a fourth of the ingredient at a time. Always begin and end with the dry ingredients. Mix completely. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 60 to 70 minutes. Start checking to see if it is done at 60 minutes using a wooden toothpick. Continue checking every 5 minutes to make sure it does not overcook. When the toothpick comes out clean, the cake is done. Remove from the oven and let it sit for 15 minutes. Then remove it from the cake pan and cool completely on a wire rack. Dust with powdered sugar or frost as desired. Note that this recipe makes a large cake. For smaller pound cakes, use loaf pans or even mini bundt cake molds. Adjust the cooking time accordingly since they will not need as much time to bake. FROSTING: Cream butter and peanut butter. Add powdered sugar and milk while mixer is set on low. Add the milk one tablespoon at a time until you are happy with the consistency. Pour over the top of the cake. For Chocolate Peanut Butter Frosting, melt 4 ounces of semisweet chocolate squares, cool slightly, and add to the butter and peanut butter mixture. Proceed with the rest of the instructions. Don't worry if the frosting is too thick or thin, just add small amounts of milk to thin, or powdered sugar to thicken.

Tips:

  • Use room temperature ingredients: This will help the batter come together more easily and result in a smoother cake.
  • Cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy: This will help incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter cake.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition: This will help prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in a tough cake.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: Overbaking can result in a dry cake.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

Peanut Butter Cream Pound Cake is a delicious and classic dessert that is perfect for any occasion. This moist and flavorful cake is made with simple ingredients and is easy to make. With its rich peanut butter flavor and creamy frosting, this cake is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
